asphalt paving
Laying tar roads
Asphalt paving is the process of laying asphalt—a mixture of bitumen and aggregate—to create roads, driveways, or parking lots.
The term also refers to the finished surface itself: The asphalt paving in the parking lot needs repair.
Contractors speak of asphalt paving as distinct from concrete work.
